In less than a month, MilfordMD Cosmetic Dermatology Surgery & Laser Center, in Milford, Penn., will host a free seminar, open to the public, on the minimally invasive cosmetic possibilities of the breakthrough radiofrequency ThermiTight and ThermiSmooth treatments. The October 4, 2016 seminar starts at 5 pm and includes not only education and demonstrations, but also gift bags with cosmetic goodies and exclusive treatment discounts for those who attend.
“Thermi devices gently apply radio-frequency energy to tighten skin with little to no downtime. The ThermiTight and ThermiSmooth devices can leave patients with a more youthful and sculpted face, neck, arms, breast, abdomen, thighs and knees.”
“Thermi devices gently heat localized tissue with radiofrequency energy to tighten skin, with little or no downtime,” says cosmetic surgeon and MilfordMD Medical Director, Dr. Richard Buckley. “The ThermiTight and ThermiSmooth devices target and tighten skin on the face, neck, arms, breast area, abdomen, thighs or knees, leaving patients with a more youthful, sculpted shape.”

“ThermiTight and ThermiSmooth skin tightening treatments are safe and very comfortable. This is a dramatic breakthrough in minimally invasive and noninvasive cosmetic procedures,” Dr. Buckley says. “We want to shout about it from the rooftops, but came up with the next best thing: to spread the word about the new and exciting skin sculpting technologies by holding an educational seminar for the public.”

ThermiTight fills an important need among cosmetic surgery patients. There are options for reducing fat and surgically tightening loose skin, but, until now, there had been few options specifically aimed at skin tightening around the body without traditional surgery.

The technology has a built-in safety feature to monitor the level of heat being applied under the skin. The controlled application of heat is also monitored by a customized external infrared video camera, allowing Dr. Buckley to literally shrink the skin to where it was in a more youthful state—near the patient’s underlying bone structure.

ThermiSmooth also uses radiofrequency technology but does not involve inserting a probe under the skin. Rather, Dr. Buckley tightens skin by heating the tissue from outside the skin’s top layer. It’s totally noninvasive.

“ThermiSmooth is excellent for tightening bags under the eyes and wrinkles and lines around the mouth,” Dr. Buckley says. “For best results, patients usually want about three to six office-based treatments. And since the device stimulates collagen remodeling, the results are often long lasting.”

While some patients are happy with the skin tightening from the Thermi devices alone, there are patients who want other issues addressed, as well. “For example, we can address skin pigmentation, lines and wrinkles with lasers, peels or non-invasive HydraFacial MD treatments. If we’re treating areas of the body with ThermiTight, we also can noninvasively treat cellulite with devices we have at the practice. All these options are possible without traditional surgery,” Dr. Buckley says. “We also use fillers and neurotoxins to address aging issues of the face, along with ThermiSmooth treatment.”

While the MilfordMD special presentation on ThermiTight and ThermiSmooth on October 4 is free and open to the public, seating at this event is very limited and reservations are required. To reserve your spot, call MilfordMD Cosmetic Dermatology Surgery & Laser Center at (570)296-4000.
